If you go to home depot or lowes, they make these devices that let you find a stud in the wall. You run it along the wall , and throws out a signal(sonar/radar like) through the wall, and it lights up when passes over a stud or area that is not hollow. I think it cost like 20 dollars or something.

I hear there is even an app for that. Don't know how good they are though. For android and iPhones.

You can use a stud finder like previous posters mentioned. Also, I think studs, by building code, have to be placed every 16 inches.

Yea I think I heard that though. But I don't know how much I would trust that lol.
